CrowdStrike Falcon is well suited for any size of environment. Large to small, CrowdStrike Falcon does an amazing job. The ability to have the same security as a fortune 500 company and have a solution that sees the same threats that they are seeing is amazing. I do not think that there is a company or environment that wouldn't benefit from the CrowdStrike Falcon solution.

Microsoft Security Copilot is well-suited for environments where security teams face high alert volumes and need rapid triage. It is effective during active threat response, helping us establish timelines and suggest remediation steps quickly. Copilot also excels in executive reporting, generating clear summaries for leadership without much effort. Security Copilot is less effective outside of Microsoft's ecosystem because it doesn't integrate well with other products.

Cons
CrowdStrike
  • Support - we are often tasked with running down problems rather than being directed by support.
  • The sales staff we have dealt with are not very responsive or timely.
  • I believe this is a product built for installations of 300 users or more.

  • It is super expensive, which can be a turn off for many small businesses looking to leverage its capabilities
  • It can be very complex to set up, with many prerequisite steps that need to happen prior to being able to use it
  • With all AI-based solutions, it can sometimes hallucinate, but that is to be expected at some level

Usability

I think it is a complete and very trustful XDR platform, with very few False Positives. It is very well supported by highly skilled professionals on all levels: from pre-sales engineers, Customer Account Managers and support engineers.

Support Rating
CrowdStrike
Any time we need to engage the Crowdstrike Falcon Complete Team, their response is switch, thorough, and they are sure to not close out any request until the customer confirms that they have provided an acceptable resolution. If I ever need anything from the account team related to the product, I also get a response from them within minutes typically to address my question. Top notch customer service!

In-Person Training
CrowdStrike
There is limited amount of learning that can be completed in an in-person training available. In my opinion, the self-paced learning provided by Falcon portal is more useful over in-person training. The support from Falcon is great and useful to overcome difficulties, if any.

The training provided by Crowdstrike Falcon is complete in terms of the depth of technical knowledge and teaches the users about going through with the platform. There are lots of jargons for different tools that Crowdstrike Falcon has and this training teaches them all which helps in managing the platform better.

It stacks on top. We love the ease of use, the third-party integration, having AI, and the CrowdStrike team was way more helpful with our team, so that adoption was within a couple of months. We also compared prices, and the value was higher, with a faster ROI, which helps our finance department start the project promptly.

My usage of other products is based on SIEM tools. So far, Microsoft Security Copilot is the only product I've seen that works across multiple technologies/products to provide full visibility into security tooling using AI. I know other vendors are working towards this, but Microsoft has definitely taken a lead.

  • Helps reduce time spent creating a baseline script.
  • Some errors get corrected but then get reintroduced while adding functionality.
  • I noticed that when using this for PowerShell it will sometimes have you install the module in the script without verifying if it is already installed. You must read the script before executing.
